Abstract:
A multi-layer woven or knitted fabric exhibiting reversibly changeable air permeability, which contains reversibly crimping cellulose acetate fibers exhibiting a percentage of crimp of less than 10% at a humidity of 95% or above and a percentage of crimp of 20% or above at a humidity of 45% or below and which has a basis weight of 100 to 350 g/m2. When water content of the fabric is enhanced by the absorption of water or moisture, the air permeability of the fabric increases to inhibit in-clothes stuffiness or stickiness due to sweat and in-clothes temperature rise, while when the fabric has discharged the water into the outside environment, the air permeability of the fabric decreases to the original one to prevent the body temperature from lowering excessively because of the heat of vaporization and thus keep the in-clothes environment comfortable.

Abstract:
A fixing device for an image forming apparatus and having a heating member facing a sheet transport path. The heating member has a number of heating portions which are separate in a direction perpendicular to an intended direction of sheet transport. The heating portions are selectively driven in matching relation to a toner image carried on a sheet.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a semiconductor device, in particular, a semiconductor device comprising a vertical npn transistor, a vertical pnp transistor and an IIL which are integrated on the same one-conductivity type semiconductor substrate (1) . The IIL comprises an emitter, a base and a collector which are respectively comprised of a high-density n.sup.+ -type first buried layer (5), a p.sup.+ -type second buried layer (8) having a lower impurity density than the n.sup.+ -type first buried layer (5), and at least one of n.sup.+ -type diffused layer (31). The semiconductor device thus constituted makes it possible to increase the emitter injection efficiency while the base impurity density is kept high, and also to decrease the base width, so that the collector-emitter breakdown voltage and current gain of the IIL can be more improved and also the operation speed of the IIL can be made higher.
Abstract:
A display apparatus using a matrix display panel, such as a liquid crystal panel, for converting the number of scanning lines to be displayed to a number that can be accommodated on a panel having a smaller number of scanning lines. The apparatus includes a control circuit which produces control signals in synchronism with the input video signal, horizontal and vertical scanning circuits each including a shift register operated by the control circuit, and a display panel which is formed of a matrix arrangement of pixels that are driven selectively by the scanning circuits. The apparatus further includes a circuit which halts the operation of the vertical shift register at a certain interval within the effective scanning period of the vertical scanning circuit so as to extract vertical shift clocks, thereby removing the vertical shift clocks within the effective display period of the video signal, thereby extracting periodically extracting scanning lines.
Abstract:
A glass sheet is heated nearly to its softening point while being passed through a heating furnace. The heated glass sheet is then clamped at its peripheral edge between first and second molds. Thereafter, a third mold is pressed against a central region of the glass sheet with the peripheral edge thereof clamped, thereby to project the central region from one side to the other side thereof. The glass sheet is thus pressed to a desired highly curved shape with no wrinkles or cracks developed therein. The glass sheet is clamped and pressed by a pressing apparatus which includes a fixed concave ring mold as the first mold, and a movable convex mold comprising a peripheral mold assembly as the second mold and a central mold member as the third mold. The glass sheet thus curved is typically used as a front or rear window glass sheet for automobiles.
Abstract:
An opening/closing device of a door for a refrigerator or the like will open/close the door member at a desired side, namely, at the right side or at the left side, without requiring a movable operating handle. The device is simple in construction, has a high adiabatic efficiency, and can be easily incorporated in the door member. Therefore, no special mechanism is necessary in the door member and no structural change is required inside the door member.
Abstract:
A power transmission mechanism includes a gear member and an annular and eccentric floating member having internal gear teeth meshed with external gear teeth of the gear member. A pair of guide plates provided on both outer sides of either the gear member or floating member prevent lateral disengagement of the floating member from the gear member. A pair of seal rings arranged between the inner sides of the guide plates and the outer sides of either the floating member or gear member prevent entry of dust or the like foreign material into a substantially closed space between the teeth of the gear member and the floating member, to thereby improve the durability of the mechanism.
Abstract:
In a time division multiplexing system for multiplexing a plurality of channels having mutually-independent bit rates, the improvement wherein the pulse signals of each channel are converted into codes so that the information "1" is represented by a pulse having a width of two consecutive transmission clock periods ("0,0" or "1,1") the information "0" is represented by a pluse having a width of a single transmission clock period ("0" or "1"), and polarities of adjacent pulses are always different from each other; the pulse signals are compressed time-wise in a frame unit; and a frame synchronizing signal and a channel synchronizing signal, each consisting of marks or spaces having a duration of at least three consecutive transmission clock periods, are added to the intervals between the time-compressed frames to thereby perform time division multiplexing.
Abstract:
In an optical fiber connector, the pair of optical fibers to be connected together are placed end-to-end in a linear groove which has been formed on a lateral surface of a central cylinder. They are held fixed by a holding member which is fitted in the groove and is moved towards the optical fibers according to the rotation of a hollow cylinder which externally touches the central cylinder, whereby the optical fibers can be connected with a precise alignment and accordingly with a low optical power loss.
